You'll have to turn on the pre-fill automation option. This feature auto-recalls and fills up previous transactions on a bill.

Here's how to enable it:

1. Click on the Edit menu at the top, then select Preferences.
2. Click General on the left side, then go to the My Preferences tab.
3. Under the Automatically Recall Information section, check the Automatically Remember account or transaction information box.
4. Select the option Automatically recall last transaction for this name.
5. Click OK to save your changes.

Once that's set, you can go ahead and record your bills as usual, and QuickBooks should pull up the last transaction for that vendor automatically.

Let us know in the comments if you have further questions.

I have it selected and have always had the bills populate automatically. I don’t know what changed. It just started today and I’ve had QuickBooks for 15 years
